Brian Altman

Brian Altman began his day with 845,000 but nothing went well for the three-time WPT (and two-time Lucky Hearts Poker Open champ) from the start.

With a board reading Ah4d2c2h5c, Altman bet 350,000, leaving 55,000 and Eric Zheng called with AcTc. He had aces up, Altman at Td8d for air, and Zheng eliminated him on the next hand.
